A day to remember for sport lovers!
Iam on a high!
One of the greatest day in history of sport entertainment was recorded today and I witnessed it (on TV that is!).
It began with start of 2006 F1 season and champion Fernando Alonso muscled his way around Ferrari ace Micheal Schumacher in some spectacular driving to win the inaugral Bahrain race.
Meanwhile records were tumbling at Johannesburg Cricket Stadium, South Africa. In the series decider the invincible Aussies smacked 434/4 in their stipulated 50 overs, a world record for highest ODI total.
They broke a 10 year world record but little they knew that this record was about to be broken again in less than 4 hours! South Africa, backed by brilliant knocks by Gibbs and Smith chased the score in a cliffhanger of a match. They won by 1 wicket and with 1 ball to spare. Anyone who is remotely interested in cricket and somehow missed the match.. well he has missed the match of the lifetime!!
What a day it has been today..
Cheers!

Cricket is an unpredictable game. my favorite team scores 500, I'm still having butterflies in my stomach as to whether it'd be defended or not. The day shall be rememberd for a long long time unless some buccannering team decides to go for the jugular.
